BLAKE'S   PATENT- FIRE-PROOF  PAINT. 

OR  ARTIFICIAL  SLATR. 


This  rr.:=:  rulin-ar.  "  ?,'z ' e  P:r:r.?:.:  lf-:>ere  :  :- 
of  rock  in  Sharon,  near  AkroVi.  Ohio,  in  the  spring  of  44.  bui  subse- 
quently learned  that  it  had  been  known  for  years,  and  not  deemed  of 
the  least  value  But  from  its  firmness  and  uniformity  of  texture.  I' was 
led  to  believe  it  might  be  turned  to  something  useful  for  the  benefit 
of  man.  but  fur  what  particular  use  I  had  not  the  most  distant  idea.  * 
I  commenced  and  continued  my  experiments,  devoting  my  entire  time, 
for  two  years,  be  tore  ascertaining  its  great  value.  I  then  found  by  reduc- 
ing the  Pigment  to  a  fine  powder",  and  mixing  it  with  Linseed  Oil.  to  the 
consistency  of  thick  paint,  and  applying  this  compound  with  a  brush 
to  either  wood,  bricks,  tin.  iron,  or  thick  paper,  in  a  few  months  the 
action  of  the  atmosphere  would  turn  this  coating  to  a  perfect  Slate, 
protecting  the  substance  covered>fnyn  the  action  of  the  atmosphere 
and  from  FiRB.  This  discovei^i  considered  of  the  greatest  import- 
ance, as  I  believed  I  had  disoovere  J  a  desideratum  that  had  for  years 
been  souzht  in  vain.  I  applied  arid  obtained  from  the  government, 
on  the  25th  March.  a  patent.  The  Sate  Fair  at  Buffalo  awarded 
me  a  Diploma,  and  the  Fair  of  the  American  Institute  a  Medal,  and 
the  Examining  Committee  (of  whom  Dr.  J.  R.  Chilton  was  chair- 
man (and  had  some  three  years  previous  analyzed  it),  reported  thai  it 
was  an  article  superior  to" any  thing  that  had  evef  been  presente#at 
the  Fair  as  a  Weather  and  Fire-proof  Covering. 

I  have  two  original  colors  (black  and  chocolate),  and  by  the  addi- 
tion of  a  small  amount  of  coloring  matter  they  can  be  easily  changed 
to  suit  the  taste. 

Look  out  for  Fraud.  , 

As  scores  of  individuals  are  digging  and  sending  to  a  distance 
all  kinds  of  worthless  counterfeit  "stuff,  most  of  it  "no  better  than 
dirt  from  the  streets,  calling  it  all  good  Fire-proof  Paint.  Now, 
I  will  only  say  to  the  public,  that  if  they  get  the  Powder  except 
from  me  or  my  Agents,  that  will  make  the  genuine  Artificial  Slate, 
they  infrinse  upon  my  patent,  for  which  I  shall  hoidjtbem  to  a  strict 
accountability  ;  and  if  it  does  not  make  the  Slate,  of  course  it  will 
rub  off  as  soon  as  the  action  of  the  atmosphere  destroys  the  oil,  in 
which  case  they  lose  the  money  paid  for  the  spurious  article. 

The  genuine*  article  can  at  all  times  be  had  at  No.  3  Broad 
Strrbt,  N.  Y.,  of  the  Patentee.

DR.  THOMAS  BLAKE'S 

AROMATIC  BITTERS  AND  TONIC  INVIGORATOR. 


Testimonials  and  affidavits  of  the  superior  and  extraordinary  effi- 
cacy of  these  Bitters  in  the  cure  of  Liver  Complaints,  attended  with 
tuberculous  disarrangement,  Intermittent  and  Remittent  Fevers, 
enlargement  of  the  Liver  and  Spleen.  Jaundice.  Fever  and  Ague. 
Chill  Fever,  Dumb  Ague,  and  all  the  various  forms  of  a  Sallow  Com- 
plexion. Capricious  Appetite,  and  occasional  pain  in  the  side,  are, 
perhaps,  the  only  symptoms  of  impending  danger.  The  operation  of 
these  Bitters  is  to' counteract  this  baneful  influence,  by  producing 
activity  of  the  Biliary  Organs,  and  a  healthy  natural  discharge  from 
the  system. 

It  is  entirely  a  Vegetable  Preparation,  and  may  be  taken  by  any  one 
with  perfect  safety  "to  the  most  delicate  constitution.  What  is  dis- 
ease 1   What  is  unhealthy  virus  ? 

Why  is  it  that  persons  who  labour  under  difficulties,  the  pains  and 
anguish  of  sickness,  employ  doctor  after  doctor,  and  take  all  adver- 
tised quack  nostrums,  are  not  relieved  J  Simply  because  they  do  not 
use  the  right  means ;  they  do  not  find  ways  to  crea>e  an  action  in  the 
Bile,  which  is  the  general  cause  of  sickness  or  health. 

The  operation  of  these  Bitters  is  upon  the  Liver,  promoting  the  dis- 
charge of  the  Bile.  The  thousands  who  have  used  it  need  no  further 
evidence  of  its  value  ;han  its  happy  restorative  effects. 

Those  to  whom  it  is  a  new  remedy,  and  who  are  unacquainted  with 
its  merits,  will  please  consult  the  Proprietor  at  his  Office,  113  Divi- 
sion Street,  where  will  be  seen  certificates  from  those  have  used  the 
Medicine  themselves  or  in  their  Families,  and  who  have  recom- 
mended it  to  the  Public. 

Emigrants  to  California  or  other  places,  by  supplying  themselves 
with  this  article,  and  using  the  same  according  to  the  directions 
accompanying  each  bottle,  will  enjoy  the  most  entire  protection  from 
the  evils  of  a  change  of  climate,  such  is  its  healthy  influence  upon 
the  Liver,  and  through  this  organ  upon  the  whole  system. 


DIRECTIONS. 

The  average  dose  for  an  adult  is  a  large  table  spoonful  three  times 
a  day.  If  the  person  should  be  very  bilious,  a  wine  glass  full  before 
going  to  bed ;  for  a  Child  a  tea  spoonful  twice  a  day. 

"  Blake's  Aromatic  Bitters"  is  stamped  on  every  bottle,  and

In  the  year  1623,  "  the  Dutch  obtained  leave  of  the  natives  to  build 
a  better  fort  on  Manhattan  Island.  After  the  fort  was  built,  persons 
who  came  over  from  Holland  to  settle  in  America,  or  to  spend  some 
time  in  the  fur  trade,  and  who  could  not  reside  in  the  fort,  built  houses 
near  the  walls  of  the  same,  and  formed  the  first  street  ever  made  in 
the  city,  now  called  Pearl  Street."

During  the  year  1637,  <;  the  whole  of  Paulus  Hook  (Jersey  City) 
was  sold  by  William  Kieft  to  Abram  Isaac  Planck,  for  JS75 ;  and  a 
part  of  it  was  leased  for  a  tobacco  plantation.  And  in  1641,  Governor 
Kieft  leased,  for  five  years,  to  Thomas  Hall,  a  plantation  with  the 
negroes  thereon,  on  the  Island  of  Manhattan,  not  far  from  Tapopa- 
nikan,  for  750  pounds  of  good  inspected  tobacco;  by  which,  it 
appears,  it  was  formerly  cultivated  to  a  considerable  extent  on  this 
island."

In  1656,  "  the  city  had  120  houses,  and  1,000  inhabitants,  including 
the  garrison."  In  the  following  year,  "  the  whole  of  Staten  Island 
was  sold  to  the  Dutch  by  the  Indians  for  10  shirts,  30  pair  stockings, 
10  guns,  30  bars  lead,  301bs.  powder,  12  coats,  2  pieces  of  duffill,  30 
kettles,  50  hatchets,  25  hoes,  and  a  number  of  knives  and  awls."  But 
in  1670,  the  Indians,  under  pretence  that  the  bargain  "  had  never  been 
completed,  demanded  and  received  400  fathoms  more  of  wampum, 
and  a  considerable  number  of  guns,  axes,  and  other  articles,  and  on 
the  first  of  May  formally  delivered  up  the  island."

In  1688  the  total  assessed  value  of  property  in  the  city  was  j£78,231. 

In  1691,  there  being  no  printing  press  in  the  city,  the  government 
work  was  sent  to  Boston  to  be  executed. 

In  the  following  year,  23  lots  were  sold  in  the  Smith's  Vlie  (Fly- 
Market)  for  JB594  5s.,  at  " public  vandeu."  During  the  year,  the  city 
made  three  new  docks,  one  at  the  foot  of  King  (now  Pine)  Street,  the 
others,  each  side  of  Maiden  Lane.  The  tide,  at  the  time,  reached  as

In  1702,  a  "  Grammar  school  was  established,  and  a  master  sent  for 
to  the  Bishop  of  London,  '  as  there  is  not  any  person  within  this  city 
(with  whose  conveniency  it  would  be  agreeable)  proper  and  duly 
qualified  to  take  upon  himself  the  office  of  schoolmaster  of  the 
said  city,  that  the  Bishop  of  London  be  recommended  to  send  over 
hither  a  person  of  good  learning,  of  pious  life,  and  virtuous  conversa- 
tion, of  English  extract,  and  of  good  and  mild  temper,  <fcc,  and  a  part 
of  the  king's/arm  to  be  given  for  his  support.' "

We  learn  that  in  1785,  "  A  donation  of  £40  made  to  the  Corpora- 
tion, for  the  use  of  the  poor,  by  the  company  of  Comedians,  was  by 
the  Common  Council  '  ordered  to  be  returned,  with  a  note  of  disap- 
probation at  the  establishment  of  a  Play  House  without  having  been 
licensed,  as  unprecedented  and  offensive ;  and  while  so  great  a  part 
llf  the  city  was  still  lying  in  ruins,  and  the  citizens  still  suffering  un- 
|l  jr  distress,  there  is  a  loud  call  to  industry  and  economy,  and  it  would 
be  unjustifiable  in  them  to  countenance  expensive  and  enticing  amuse- 
ments.' 19

After  the  election  of  Washington  as  President,  in  17S9,  "The  City 
Hall  was  repaired  and  enlarged,  for  the  use  of  the  Congress,  at  a  great 
expense  to  the  city,  who  borrowed  the  money  from  the  bank,  and  some 
private  contributions  were  raised.  The  whole  was  expended  under 
the  superintendence  of  Major  L'Enfant,  who  received  the  thanks  of 
the  Corporation,  the  freedom  of  the  city,  and  was  offered  a  lot  of  ten 
acres  of  the  public  land,  near  Provost's  lane  or  street,  but  politely  de- 
clined the  same."

In  the  early  part  of  this  month  (about  the  4th)  Hendrick  Hudson 
arrived  at  Manhattan  Island,  which  is  thus  described :  "  On  the  point 
of  land  where  New- York  is  now  built,  they  found  living  a  very  hostile 
people,  who  would  not  deal  or  trade  with  them  :  but  those  who  lived 
on  the  western  shore,  from  the  Kilns  upward,  came  daily  on  board 
the  vessel  while  she  lay  at  anchor  in  the  river,  bringing  with  them,  to 
barter,  furs  and  skins  of  different  kinds,  and  the  largest  and  finest  oys- 
ters they  had  ever  beheld ;  also  Indian  corn,  beans,  pumpkins,  squash- 
es, grapes,  and  some  apples,  all  which  they  exchanged  for  trifles."

The  following  brief  sketch  is  taken  from  an  account  of  the  cele- 
brated negro  plot  in  1741,  when  one-sixth  of  the  population  were 
slaves :  "  One  hundred  and  fifty- four  negroes,  and  twenty  white  per- 
sons, were  committed  to  prison,  of  which  fifty-five  were  convicted, 
and  seventy-eight  confessed.  Thirteen  negroes  were  burnt  at  the 
stake,  at  a  place  then  out  of  town,  but  situated  near  the  present  inter- 
section of  Pearl  and  Chatham  streets,  where  there  formerly  was  a  hol- 
low place.  Twenty  were  hung,  seventy  were  transported  to  foreign 
parts,  and  fifty  were  discharged."

In  1762,  "  Methodism  was  first  introduced  into  New- York.  Some 
persons,  members  of  Wesley's  Society,  from  England  and  Ireland, 
settled  in  various  places  ;  and  some  few  years  after,  two  local  preach- 
ers began  to  preach  in  New- York  and  one  in  Maryland,  and  made 
some  converts.  About  this  time,  a  Mr.  Webb,  lieutenant  in  the  army, 
preached  at  New-York  and  Philadelphia  with  great  success;  and 
with  the  assistance  of  friends,  erected  a  chapel  in  New- York,  the  first 
in  America."

In  Oct.  of  1765,  "  Great  excitement  existed  in  the  city,  and  a  civil 
war  feared.  The  Corporation  induced  the  Governor  and  Command- 
er-in-chief to  deposit  the  stamped  paper,  which  was  the  cause  of  the 
offence,  in  the  City  Hall  for  safe  keeping.  The  Stamp  act  was  burnt, 
a  non-importation  agreement  made  by  the  citizens,  and  the  spirit  of 
whig  and  tory  ran  high.  A  great  mob  on  the  1st  of  November :  the 
Governor  and  the  devil,  holding  the  Stamp  act,  were  burnt  in  effigy, 
after  being  paraded  through  the  streets."

A  BIRD'S-EYE  VIEW 

OF  THE 

CITY   OF  NEW-YORK. 


FOR  THE  USE  OF 

TRAVELLERS  AND  STRANGERS, 

Illustrated  with  Views  of  several  Religious 
and  other  Edifices. 


Entered  according  to  Act  of  Congress,  in  the  year  1849,  by  H.  WILSON, 
in  the  Clerk's  Office  of  the  District  Court  or'  the  United  States 
for  the  Southern  District  of  Mew- York. 


Presuming,  my  dear  sir,  or  madam,  that  you  are  comfortably  fixed 
at  one  of  the  magnificent  hotels  with  which  Broadway  and  its 
dependencies  are  embellished,— that  you  have  issued  unscathed 
from  all  the  dangers  of  cabmen,  porters,  and  omnibus-drivers  that 
make  the  passage  from  steamboat  to  hotel  not  much  less  difficult 
or  perilous  than  the  path  to  fame, — we  proceed  to  put  you  au  cou- 
rant  as  to  what  is  going  on  in  the  great  metropolis  in  the  way  of 
things  worth  seeing  or  hearing  ;  and  perhaps  shall  give  you  a  hint  or 
two  as  to  the  most  eligible  manner  of  getting  about  town  with  the 
greatest  comfort  and  least  expense.  We  of  course  take  it  for 
granted  that  you  are  above  the  vulgar  dangers  of  stuffed  watches  and 
exorbitant  cab-hire  ;  know  how  to  select  the  right  omnibus  by  read- 
ing its  destination  on  the  side,  instead  of  stopping  to  have  a  palaver  in 
the  street  with  the  driver;  and  that,  in  short,  you  are  altogether  a 
sensible  and  comfortable  traveller. 

We  will,  therefore,  now  descend  to  the  street ;  and  as  it  still  lacks 
a  couple  of  hours  to  sunset,  we  shall  have  plenty  of  time  to  take  the 
principal  bearings  of  the  city,  and  you  can  return  home  in  the  proud 
consciousness  of  being  a  "knowing  one,"  and  not  to  be  sold  for  any 
reasonable  price.  If,~however,  there  should  still  remain  the  slightest 
suspicion  of  uncertainty  as  to  your  knowledge  of  the  city's  ways,  just 
put  this  little  book  under  your  pillow,  and  you  will  dream  your  way 
through  every  street  and  alley  as  infallibly  as  a  policeman. 

You  noticed,  probably,  the  beautiful  green  promenade  near  where 
you  landed,  and  whose  broad  and  pleasant  walks  temptingly  invited 
you  to  take  a  stroll  7  That  is  the  Battery,  of  which  you  have  doubt- 
less heard  and  read  a  great  deal.  It  contains  about  twelve  acres, 
substantially  inclosed  in  an  iron-railing,  though  not  sufficiently  to 
keep  out  the  loafers,  and  bad  characters  generally,  who  have  of  late 
years  almost  monopolized  this  beautiful  promenade,  and  driven 
away  all  the  pretty  ladies,  with  their  fairy-like  children,  who  used  to 
make  its  broad  walks  and  tender  grass-plats  seem  like  gardens  of  the

A  bird's-eye  view 


houris,  in  the  pleasant  summer  afternoons.  You  cannot  find  in  the 
world  so  delicious  a  sea-promenade  as  the  long  walk  in  front  of  the 
Battery  to  the  left  of  Castle  Garden ;  but  if  you  are  a  lady,  you  cannot 
go  there  aione  without  the  ri3k  of  annoyance.  This  is  a  fact  dis- 
graceful to  the  authorities,  but  it  is  nevertheless  true. 

Castle  Garden  is  a  round  building  erected  on  a  mole  right  out  in 
the  sea,  and  connected  with  the  Battery  by  a  peninsula  of  plank.  It 
looks  at  a  distance  very  much  like  a  red  earthen  milk-pan  turned 
upside  down,  and  used  to  be  strongly  armed  and  fortified.  The 
United  States,  however,  having  got  large  enough  to  take  care  of  itself 
without  wearing  fire-arms,  the  old  Castle  was  dismantled,  and  ceded 
to  the  Corporation.  You  can  now  get  very  good  ice-cream,  dancing 
and  musical  entertainments  there  during  the  summer  ;  while  in  the 
fall,  its  immense  area,  and  all  the  passages  leading  to  it,  become  filled 
with  miraculous  squashes  and  unparallelled  counterpanes,  the  self- 
acting  washing-machines,  and  perennial  hair-dyes,  constituting  the 
show  of  the  American  Institute. 

A  little  distance  up  Broadway  from  the  Battery,  leaving  the 
Bowling-Green  on  our  right,  we  come  to  Trinity  Church— -a  costly 
and  very  beautiful  structure  of  the  "  perpendicular  Gothic"  order  of 
architecture;  although  the  body  of  the  church  is  so  small,  in  propor- 
tion to  the  spire,  that  the  whole  has  been  maliciously  designated  as 
an  elaborate  clock-case.  If  you  have  the  slightest  disposition  in  the 
world  to  know  all  about  the  "clerestory,"  "the  transom  mullions," 
the  "buttresses-,"  "piers,"  "battlements,"  "crocketted  pinnacles 
terminating  in  a  finial,"  and  other  architecturalities,  throw  us  out  of 
the  window :  for  we  frankly  confess  to  you  that  we  don't  know  a 
buttress  from  a  buttery,  nor  a  pinnacle  from  a  pin-cushion. 

The  Custom  House  is  only  one  block  down  Wall  street,  which 
enters  Broadway  exactly  opposite  Trinity  Church.  Every  broker  in 
the  street  can  see  the  golden-handed  clock,  (thus  furnished  in  compli- 
ment to  the  locality,)  and  the  gilt  cross,  every  time  he  emerges  from 
his  den.  The  first  is  to  remind  him  that  it  is  time  to  go  on 
"  'Change"—  the  other  points  steadily  to  heaven;  but  unfortunately 
it  is  placed  so  high  that  nobody  ever  musters  up  courage  to  look  at  it. 

The  Custom  House  is  a  very  large  white  marble  building,  with  an 
interminable  flight  of  steps.  It  is  said  to  be  built  after  the  Athenian 
Parthenon — and  we  think  we  might  say  about  twelve  hundred  and 
seventy-five  years.  In  few  other  respects  can  it  be  said  to  have  followed 
very  strictly  the  magnificent  temple  of  the  virgin  goddess.  It  is, 
however,  a  very  fine,  substantial  edifice,  admirably  adapted  to  its 
purposes,  and  completely  incombustible :  there  being  nothing  more 
inflammable  than  warm  water  within  the  walls,  even  for  purposes 
of  heating  in  the  winter.  Its  cost,  with  the  lot  on  which  it  stands, 
running  up  from  Wall  street  to  Pine,  $1,750,000;  the  cost  of  the 
building  alone  being  $950,000. 

The  Merchants'  Ex change— This  is  a  large  gray  granite  building, 
with  an  imposing  colonnade  front  on  Wall  street  of  Ionic  columns, 
opening  into  one  of  the  loftiest  and  grandest  rotundas  in  the  world. 
The  Rotunda— the  "  'Change,"  of  which  one  hears  so  much — is  wain- 
scoted with  Italian  marble  ;  and  eight  superb  Corinthian  columns  of 
the  same  exquisite  material,  forty-one  feet  high,  support  the  panelled 
dome  and  sky-light.  The  whole  building  is  as  incombustible  as  the 
Custom  House,  and  cost  some  fifty  thousand  dollars  more  than  that. 

We  will  now  return  to  Broadway,  and  keep  on  up  to  the  Park, 
which  brings  us  to  our  starting  point.   The  Park,  with  its  fountain, 


OF  THE  CITY  OF  NEW-YORK.

its  rows  of  loafers  reclining  on  the  benches,  its  lawyers  hurrying 
through  the  walks  with  green  bag  on  arm,  you  can  see  for  yourself. 
Yonder  graceful  building — by  far  the  handsomest  specimen  of  archi- 
tecture on  the  Island — is  the  City  Hall,  in  which  are  all  the  Courts, 
the  Common  Council,  and  Governor's  rooms,  the  County  offices, 
&c  &c.  It  is  built  of  white  marble,  somewhat  in  the  Lombardo- 
Venetian  style  of  architecture ;  and,  viewed  in  front,  is  really  an 
elegant  and  imposing  structure.  It  is  surmounted  by  a  well-propor- 
tioned dome,  containing  the  great  central  fire-alarm  bell,  and  an 
invaluable  clock,  which  sometimes  indicates  four  different  times  of 
day  at  the  same  moment  to  the  denizens  of  the  four  quarters  of  the  city. 

The  Hall  of  Records — a  pure  Ionic  building,  ornamented  with  a 
multitude  of  gilt  and  black  tin  signs,  is  situated  a  few  steps  east  of  the 
City  Hall,  and  is  exactly  what  its  title  indicates.  In  the  rear,  run- 
ning from  Centre  street  to  Broadway,  is  the  New  City  Hall,  for- 
merly the  Alms  House.  It  contains  a  variety  of  offices  and  courts 
requisite,  but  not  very  interesting.  The  Court  of  Oyer  and  Ter- 
miner—our  highest  State  criminal  court— is  in  the  middle  apart- 
ments of  this  building.  The  Commissioners  of  Emigration  and  of 
the  Alms  House,  and  various  other  public  institutions,  are  in  these 
buildings. 

The  Tombs,  or  Halls  of  Justice,  occupy  an  entire  block  between 
Centre  and  Elm,  Leonard  and  Franklin  streets.  It  is  one  of  the  few 
genuine  specimens  of  architecture  in  the  city,  as  it  is  what  it  pre- 
tends to  be — strictly  Egyptian.  It  contains  the  Court  of  Sessions, 
Police  Courts,  Coroner's  Office,  Grand  Jury  Room,  and  143  cells  for 
prisoners  committed  for  trial,  or  bavins  been  convicted  and  awaiting 
transportation  to  the  final  place  of  punishment. 

Free  Academy  of  the  City  of  New  York,  Lexington  Avenue,  near 
Twenty-third  street.— (Take  a  Third  Avenue  stage,"if  you  wish  to  in- 
spect it  in  person.)  The  dimensions  of  the  building,  (of  which  a  view 
is  given  on  the  next  page,)  are  125  feel  by  80.  It  consists,  exclusive 
of  the  basement  and  great  hall,  of  three  spacious  stories,  which  are  in- 
tersected by  two  wide  passages,  running  at  right  angles  through  the 
middle  of  the  building.  It  is  believed  that  it  will  afford  accommoda- 
tion lor  a  thousand  scholars,  with  the  necessary  appliances  and  con- 
veniences. 

It  was  erected  under  the  superintendence  of  James  Renwick,  jr., 
Architect.  It  is  in  the  style  of  the  Gothic  town-halls  of  the  Nether- 
lands. The  stvle  was  selected  for  its  appropriateness  and  con- 
venience ;  by  which  utility  is  combined  with  appearance,  convenient 
means  of  ventilation  and  heating  are  obtained,  buttresses  being  con- 
verted into  flues,  and  towers  into  chimnies.  This  elegant  hall,  so 
well  adapted  to  the  purposes  of  the  institution,  may  be  said  to  have 
been  procured  without  cost.  There  is  no  waste  room— the  building 
is  brought  into  use  up  to  the  very  roof-peak,  and  the  structure  for 
the  support  of  the  roof  is  so  arranged  that  the  weight  rests  mainly 
upon  the  interior  walls,  and  there  is  no  lateral  thrust  upon  the  outer 
walls.  This  has  allowed  the  construction  of  well-tied,  hollow,  light, 
exterior  walls,  at  a  saving  in  cost  sufficient  to  pay  for  all  the  orna- 
ment, which  the  adoption  of  the  Gothic  style  of  architecture  has 
required.  An  ornamental  building  has  thus* been  obtained,  perhaps 
at  less  cost  than  a  plain  edifice,  of  proper  architectural  proportions, 
arrangement,  and  solidity,  could  have  been  erected  for. 

The  enure  cost  of  erection,  in  which  are  embraced  all  expenses  of 
printing  and  advertising,  plans  and  superintendence  ;  and  including 


OF  THE  CITY  OF  NEW-YORK. 


57 


several  large  items  of  expenditure,  for  foundation  and  sewers,  not 
contemplated  when  the  contracts  were  made  ;  also,  the  stuccoing  of 
the  exterior,  and  painting  and  sanding  of  the  battlements  and  pinna- 
cles, have  been  safely  within  the  sum  of  $50,000,  the  amount 
authorized  by  law.  The  Legislature  wisely  limited  the  cost  of  erect- 
ing the  building,  in  view  of  The  extravagance  which  is  usually  prac- 
tised in  this  particular. 

This  eligible  site,  of  the  dimensions  of  122^  feet  on  Lexington 
Avenue,  by  200  feet  on  Twenty-third  street,  was  purchased  at  a  cost  of 
$20,000.  The  amount  appropriated  thus  far,  for  fitting  up  and  fur- 
niture, is  $10,000. 

The  advantages  of  this  institution,  as  its  name  imports,  are  free  to 
all.  It  presents,  to  rich  and  poor  alike,  an  open  and  an  even  field. 
Intellect,  industry,  and  good  conduct,  are  to  win  the  prizes  on  this 
course.  Merit  is  to-be  the  test  of  admission,  and  hereafter,  when  the 
number  to  be  admitted  at  each  examination  shall  be  limited  in 
advance,  it  will  be  necessary  to  exercise  the  nicest  discrimination. 
The  examinations  are  to  be  conducted  so  that  there  may  be  no  ground 
for  the  suspicion  of  favoritism.  Each  candidate  receives  from  the 
Principal  a  number,  which  is  his  only  designation,  until  the  examina- 
tion is  completed.  The  Professors  who  conduct  the  examination 
are  not  to  know  the  parentage,  the  school,  or  even  the  names  of  the 
candidates,  until  the  whole  result  is  declared. 

The  whole  system  of  instruction  that  will  be  embraced  in  the  plan 
of  the  Free  Academy  is  not  definitely  arranged.  Being  established 
as  a  part  of  the  system  of  public  education^  the  Free  Academy  is, 
necessarily,  united  with  the  Common  Schools.  The  Act  gives  the 
Board  of  "Education  power  to  establish  a  Free  Academy  "for  the 
purpose  of  extending  the  benefits  of  education  gratuitously  to  those 
who  have  been  pupils  in  the  Common  Schools  of  the  City  and 
County  of  New  York."  The  qualification  for  admission  into  the 
former  is,  a  thorough  knowledge  of  the  branches  taught  in  the  latter. 
The  education  is  continued  onward,  branching,  as"  it  proceeds,  to- 
wards the  various  divisions  of  the  field  of  knowfedge,  as  the  purpose 
of  the  pupils  may  lead  them.

A  P.  I1  I  'S-EYE  VIEW 


The  Astor  (free)  library. 
This  noble  institution,  for  which  the  citizens  are  indebted  to  the 
munificence  of  the  late  John  Jacob  Astor,  will  be  located  on  Lafayette 
Place.  3 
,  The  boy  at  school  has  a  new  world  opened  to  him  in  the  school 
Jbrary,  the  lover  of  learning  in  Albany  may  read  in  the  Legislative 
Library  all  day  ;  or,  if  in  Phi  adelphia,  the  bequest  of  Franklin  and 
Mackenzie  is  at  his  service;  but,  in  New-York,  there  was  a  void, 
which  Mr.  Astor  was  advised  to  fill  up.  Four  hundred  thousand 
dollars  wore  devised  by  him  to  this  philanthropic,  object;  the  site 
which  if  is  to  occupy,. forming  part  of  the  bequest,  valued  at  $30,000, 


OP  THE  CITY  OP  NEW-YORK.  59 


upon  which  a  building,  restricted  by  the  will,  in  cost  to  $75,000,  is  to  be 
erected,  after  a  design  from  which'the  opposite  view  is  reduced.  Of 
the  balance,  $120,000  are  to  be  expended  in  the  purchase  of  books, 
maps,  statuary,  &c,  and  the  remainder  to  be  placed  at  interest  to 
defray  the  expenses  of  management,  for  the  purchase  of  books,  or 
establishment  of  lectures,  as  the  Trustees  may  think  best. 

The  building  will  be  built  of  brown  cut  stone,  in  the  Florence 
Palace  style  of  architecture,  65  feet  front  by  120  deep  ;  and  its  height, 
from  the  level  of  the  side- walk  to  the  top  line  of  the  parapet,  will  be 
67^  feet,  of  three  stories,  including  the  basement :  and  is  to  be  so 
constructed  as  to  shut  out  all  danger  of  damage  by  fire. 

The  basement  will  be  used  for  keeper's  rooms,  cellars,  &c,  and 
will  contain  four  large  hot-air  furnaces  for  warming  the  building. 

The  entrance  is  through  a  vestibule  directly  to  a  well-designed 
staircase,  leading  to  the  library-hall.  To  the  right  and  left  of  the 
vestibule  are  the  reading-rooms ;  and  on  each  sfde  of  the  stairway 
are  two  corridors,  leading  to  the  lecture-room,  (sufficiently  large  to 
seat  500  persons.)  in  the  rear  of  the  building. 

The  library-hall  will  be  60  feet  by  100 "in  the  clear,  and  about  40 
feet  in  height,  lighted  from  the  roof ;  the  height  of  the  hall  midway 
between  the  floor  and  ceiling  is  divided  by  a  gallery,  about  15  feet  in 
width,  supported  by  14  brick  piers.  The  whole  height  of  the  wall  is 
to  be  provided  with  shelving,  atfording  room  for  100,000  volumes  ;  to 
render  the  upper  portions  of  which  accessible,  two  other,  and 
smaller  galleries,  are  extended  around  the  hall,  above  and  below  the 
main  gallery.  In  fact,  the  whole  interior  is  admirably  designed  for 
convenience  and  economy  of  space  ;  and  if  the  designs  of  the  archi- 
tect (Mr.  A.  Saeltzer)  are  fully  carried  out,  the  whole  building  will 
reflect  great  credit  upon  him,  and,  although  not  profusely  ornamented, 
will  present  a  noble  appearance,  and  form  a  new  ornament  to  our 
city. 

About  20,000  volumes  have  already  been  purchased  in  Europe  by 
Mr.  Cogswell ;  and,  although  not  yet  prepared  to  be  thrown  open  to 
the  public,  it  is  to  be  hoped  that  such  arrangements  as  are  necessary 
for  this  purpose  will  shortly  be  perfected,  so  that  no  great  length  of 
time  will  elapse  before  its  benefits  will  be  extended  to  those  for  whom 
they  were  intended. 

The  Trustees  are  the  Mayor  of  the  city,  and  Chancellor  of  the  State, 
{ex  officio ;)  and  Washington  Irving,  Wm.  B.  Astor,  Daniel  Lord,  jr., 
James  G.  King,  Jos.  G.  Cogswell,  Fitz-Green  Halleck,  Henry  Bre- 
voort,  jr.,  Samuel  B.  Ruggles,  Samuel  Ward,  jr.,  and  Charles 
Bristed,  who  are  to  appoint  their  successors.  The  Trustees  are  to

The  Society  Library. 

About  a  mile  from  the  Battery,  the  stranger  will  be  struck  with 
the  chaste  and  imposing  edifice  ot*the  Society  Library.  It  is  built  of 
brown  free-stone,  and.  with  the  land  on  which  it  is  erected,  cost 
$120,000.  "The  Public  Library''  of  New- York  was  founded  a.  d. 
1700,  and  the  New-York  Society  Library  was  ingrafted  on  it  in  1754. 
During  the  Revolution,  the  Library,  then  in  the  Old  City  Hall,  was 
scattered,  and  nearly  destroyed.  Being  revived  in  1789.  a  building 
was  erected  for  it  in  Nassau-street,  near  the  present  Post  Office, 
where  it  remained  until  1S36.  The  volumes  number  about  40.000, 
in  all  languages,  and  on  all  subjects  :  some  have  lately  been  added  of 
great  value."  Terms  of  access,  $-25  for  a  transferable  right,  liable 
to  an  annual  tax  of  $6 ;  or  temporary  subscription,  at  $10  per

The  Baptist        or uncle  Church 

The  site  selected  for  this  new  edifice  is  perhaps  the  most  desirable 
of  any  remaining  to  be  improved  in  the  central  portion  of  the  upper 
part  of  the  city',  being  on  the  easterly  side  of  the  Second  Avenue, 
between  Tenth  and  Eleventh  streets,  opposite  Stuyvesant  street, 
which  here  forms  a  junction  with  the  Avenue  in  an  oblique  direction. 
Communicating  as  this  street  does  with  Astor  Place,  and  both  being 
intersected  by  the  principal  thoroughfares  of  the  city,  the  distant 
aspect  of  the  new  building,  from  these  prominent  points,  will  be 
peculiarly  imposing.  The  building  will  not,  indeed,  as  may  be  seen 
from  the  view,  present  a  combination  of  lofty  tower  and  spire,  with 
their  attendant  pinnacles;  but  it  will  nevertheless  be  characterized  by 
the  more  sedate  and  pleasing  features  of  the  Gothic  style  of  architec- 
ture, so  long  and  universally  admired  in  the  mediaeval  chapels  of 
European  countries— simple  in  form  and  outline,  yet  frequently 


62  A  bird's-eye  view 


much  elaborated ;  and,  though  no  longer  shrines  of  worship,  certainly 
still  so  to  art. 

In  point  of  dimensions  the  house  has  been  frequently  exceeded,  the 
whole  width  over  walls  being  64  feet,  and  92  deep  ;  but  a  remarkable 
breadth  and  base  has  been  given  to  the  elevation  by  throwing  out 
side  area  doors,  and  springing  an  arch  or  flying  buttress  into  the 
main  wall,  extending  the  width  to  84  feet,  and  inclosing  the  entire 
ground. 

The  basement,  besides  the  indispensable  accommodations  to  the 
purposes  of  the  church,  contains  a  lecture-room,  which  would  seat 
conveniently  360  persons. 

The  main  floor  of  the  church,  after  deducting  for  the  baptistry,  and 
the- accompanying  arrangements,  which  are  perfect,  so  far  as  the 
conveniences  required  for  the  performance  of  the  ordinance  and  the 
pulpit  are  concerned,  will  seat  comfortably  nearly  800  persons ;  the 
galleries,  which  are  confined  to  the  sides,  nearly  300  more.  Accom- 
modations have  been  made  for  the  organ  and  choir  at  the  head  of  the 
church,  instead  of  at  the  backs  of  the  audience  as  is  usual. 

Interiorly  in  front  and  in  rear  there  are  three  lofty  arches,  the 
centre  one  45  feet  high ;  those  on  each  side  having  their  spring 
determined  by  the  raking  line  of  the  ceiling,  which  falls  at  an  angle 
of  about  30  degrees,  and  will  be  finished  in  imitation  of  ancient  panel 
work. 

The  Norfolk-street  Baptist  Chapel—  This  edifice  is  located  in 
Norfolk-street,  between  Grand  and  Broome,  and  is  yet  in  process  of 
erection.  It  is  of  the  Gothic  order  throughout,  and  is  a  beautiful  speci- 
men of  that  ancient  style  :  its  dimensions  are  57  by  80  feet.  The  front 
is  the  only  part  of  the  exterior  which  is  distinctly  seen.  It  is  built  of 
Jersey  free-stone,  and  is  inclosed  with  a  substantial  iron-railing.  At 
each  corner  of  the  front  is  presented  a  symmetrically  square  tower, 
70  feet  high,  and  crowned  with  battlements :  each  tower  is  furnished 
with  a  door  of  entrance  to  the  galleries,  and  is  lighted  with  a  richly 
stained  glass  window.  Between  the  towers  is  the  main  entrance  by 
an  imposing  doorway,  12  feet  wide  by  about  30  feet  high.  Above 
this  is  a  circular  stained  glass  window,  for  lighting  the  ceiling;  and 
running  above  that,  to  the  apex  of  the  roof,  is  an  antique  finial,  25  feet 
in  height,  makinsr  a  novel,  but  neat  finish. 

The~interior  of  the  building  presents,  if  possible,  a  more  inviting 
appearance  than  the  exterior.  On  the  first  floor  is  a  lecture-room, 
between  50  and  60  feet  square,  and  separated  from  a  set  of  tiring 
rooms  by  large  folding-doors.  The  spaciousness,  convenient  seating, 
and  free  circulation  of  light  and  air,  render  this  one  of  the  most  plea- 
sant lecture-rooms  in  the  city.  The  auditory,  or  second  floor,  is  a 
spacious  room,  capable  of  seating  1000  persons.  The  ceiling  is 
divided  into  three  spans,  and  is  supported  by  eight  heavy  pillars, 
(with  richly  ornamented  caps.)  which  form  over  the  side  galleries 
five  arches.  The  distance  from  the  floor  to  the  highest  point  in  the 
nave  is  52  feet.  The  eroined  ceiling,  and  walls,  are  elaborately  orna- 
mented with  rib-mouldings,  bosses,  corbels,  labels,  columns,  &c.  : 
and  the  whole  is  laid  off  in  courses,  and  colored  in  imitation  of  stone. 
The  pulpit  stands  in  a  niche  of  six  angles,  is  a  beautiful  niece  of  fur- 
niture, and  is  supplied  with  a  baptistry,  connected  with  the  tiring- 
rooms  below  by  staircases.  The  pews  are  in  keeping  with  the  rest 
of  the  house,  but  are  without  doors,  and  are  carpeted  and  cushioned 
— the  latter  being  of  crimson  damask.

Church  of  the  Furitans. 

(Congregational.) 
This  beautiful  edifice  is  situated  on  the  southwest  corner  of  Union 
Square  and  Fifteenth  street,  and  was  constructed  from  the  plans,  and 
under  the  superintendence,  of  J.  Renwick,  Jr.,  Esq.  The  building 
is  of  white  marble,  from  the  quarries  on  the  banks  of  the  Hudson 
River.  The  dimensions  are  as  follows :— Extreme  length,  142  feet ; 
breadth,  75  feet.  The  style  of  architecture  is  the  later  Romanesque 
—a  style  which  preceded  the  Gothic.  The  front  is  flanked  by  two 
towers  of  unequal  heights — one  104,  and  the  other  84  feet.  The 
original  design  contemplated  carrying  both  towers  to  the  same 
height,  104  feet,  and  the  construction  of  a  spire  100  feet  in  height  on 
the  northeast  corner  tower.  The  interior  of  the  church  is  110  feet  in 
length,  and  is  divided  into  three  aisles,  with  richly  groined  ceilings— 
the  centre  aisle  36  feet  wide  by  50  feet  in  height,  with  a  clerestory ; 
and  two  side  aisles,  16  feet  wide  by  35  feet  in  height.  The  windows 
are  filled  with  enamelled  glass,  with  stained  glass  borders.  Behind 
the  church  is  a  lecture-room,  27  feet  wide  and  70  feet  long;  with  a  front 


54 


A  bird's-eye  view 


on  Fifteenth-street  flanked  with  two  small  towers.  Over  the  lecture- 
room  are  two  school-rooms,  which  communicate  with  the  galleries  of 
the  church,  making  the  interior  arrangement  probably  more  complete 
and  convenient  than  that  of  any  church  at  present  erected  in  the  city. 
The  total  cost  of  the  building  was  $50,000.  The  number  of  sittings  is 
1260. 


The  South  Dutch  Church 

{Dutch  Reformed.) 
This  chaste  and  elegant  building  is  situated  on  the  southwest 
corner  of  the  Fifth  Avenue  and  Twenty-first  street,  and  was  built  by 
the  congregation  of  the  old  South  Dutch  Church,  in  Garden  street,

now  Exchange  Place ;  and  is  therefore  an  instance  of  the  remarkable 
growth  of  tfie  city  of  New- York — the  old  building  having  been 
nearly  half  a  mile  sourh,  and  the  new  one  being  exactly  two  miles  north 
of  the  City  Hall.  The  church  is  in  the  rayonant,  or  middle-age 
Gothic  style,  which  is  considered  as  the  most  perfect  form  of  that 
architecture.  The  church  is  cruciform,  120  feet  in  length,  65  feet 
in  breadth  across  the  body  of  the  church,  and  90  feet  across  the  tran- 
septs. The  lecture-room  in  the  rear  is  24  feet  wide,  and  65  feet 
long,  making  the  total  length  of  the  church  and  chapel  144  feet.  The 
front  of  the  church  is  constructed  of  buff-colored  freestone,  from  the 
quarries  of  Mr.  Thom.  the  sculptor.  The  sides  and  rear  are  of 
brick,  painted  and  sanded  to  the  same  color  as  the  front.  The  front 
of  the  church  is  divided  into  three  parts,  having  a  high  pointed  gable 
to  the  central  aisle,  and  two  lower  gables  to  the  side  aisles.  ~The 
tower  is  on  the  corner  of  the  Avenue  and  street,  and,  with  the  spire, 
(not  yet  erected,)  will  be  180  feet  in  height.  The  traceries  of  the  four 
great  windows  at  the  end  of  the  churchand  transepts,  are  remarkable 
for  their  beauty.  The  interior  is  divided  into  three  aisles  by  rich 
columns.  The  roof  is  of  oak,  with  heavily  carved  ribs  and  traceries. 
The  interior  woodwork  of  the  pews  and  other  furniture  is  black  walnut. 
The  organ  screen  is  of  oak.  The  stained  glass  in  the  principal  rear 
window  and  transept  windows  is  of  rich  and  varied  design.  The 
lower  part  of  the  principal  window  in  the  rear  is  filled  with  a  stained 
glass  trellis-work  of  two  colors,  with  a  grape  vine,  beautifully 
painted,  running  through  the  trellis.  Above  the  vine,  in  the  tracery 
of  the  head,  are  rays  diverging  from  a  central  light ;  and  below  it  two 
sheaves  of  wheat. 

The  transept  windows  have  rich  heads  of  stained  glass,  and  below 
a  pannelled  work  of  stained  and  enamelled  glass.  The  effect  of  color 
on  the  interior  of  the  church  is  very  harmonious. 

The  lecture-room  in  the  rear  is  constructed  to  correspond  both  in 
exterior  and  interior  finish  with  the  church,  to  which  it  forms  a  beau- 
tiful and  appropriate  addition. 

The  church  cost  about  $-40,000,  with  the  furniture  and  organ. 
J.  Renwick,  Jr.,  Architect. 

The  Middle  Dutch  Church,  in  Liberty-street,  corner  of  Nassau, 
now  occupied  as  the  Past  Office,  has  stood  for  one  hundred  and 
twenty  years,  and  eight  or  nine  successive  generations  (counting 
those  who  were  aged  at  the  time  of  its  opening)  have  worshipped 
within  its  walls.  On  Sabbath  evening.  11th  August,  1S44.  the  closing 
exercises  were  held  in  the  church,  in  the  view  of  resigning  it  for  other 
uses.  In  connection  with  the  usual  devotional  exercises,  a  sermon 
was  preached  by  the  Rev.  Dr.  Knox,  the  senior  pastor,  from  John  iv. 
20-24,  and  an  address  delivered  by  the  Rev.  Dr.  De  Witt,  one  of 
the  pastors.  During  the  Revolutionary  war,  in  L/6.  when  the 
British  took  possession  of  the  city,  several  of  the  churches  were 
occupied  and  greatly  injured  by  the  British  soldiery ;  but  the 
Middle  Dutch  Church  suffered  the  most.  Being  directly  adjacent 
to  the  famous  sugar-house,  the  scene  of  atrocious  and  multiplied 
cruelties  inflicted  upon  American  citizens,  it  was  at  once  used  by  the  i 
British  soldiery  for  their  quarters,  for  a  hospital,  and  then  for 
a  riding-school,  in  which  British  horsemanship  was  displayed.  The 
whole  of  the  interior  was  destroyed,  and  rendered  desolate.  It  was 
not  till  1790  that  the  church  was  repaired,  and  again  opened  for  1 
divine  worship.

Synagogue, 

Norfolk  street,  near  Houston. 

This  edifice  is  in  the  German  Gothic  style  of  architecture,  and 
derives  an  interest,  aside  from  the  elegance  of  its  exterior,  from  its 
being  of  a  style  of  architecture  entirely  new  in  this  city,  but  of  which 
frequent  and  noble  specimens  are  met  with  in  the  country  from 
which  it  has  received  its  denomination— many  of  the  details  of  this 
erection  being  copied  from  the  world-renowned  Cathedral  at  Cologne. 

It  was  designed  and  erected  by  Mr.  A.  Saeltzer  for  the  congregation. 
Anshi  Chesed.  It  is  of  brick,  stuccoed,  having  a  front  on  Norfolk  st.  of

70  feet,  and  a  depth  of  95  feet,  making  it  the  largest  Synagogue  in  the 
city. 

The  interior  is  57  feet  in  height,  from  floor  to  ceiling,  which  latter 
is  supported  by  elegant  arches ;  the  whole  being  richly  and  appro- 
priately ornamented.  There  are  galleries,  (the  entrances  to  which  are 
through  the  towers.)  which  are  devoted  exclusively  to  the  female 
portion  of  the  congregation,  who  are  in  all  Jewish  congregations 
separated  from  the  males.

Falls.  The  edifice  covers  an  area  of  eight  thousand  one  hundred  and 
ninety-two  feet,  divided  into  three  distinct  portions^  viz.,  tower, 
church,  and  chapel. 

The  tower  is  situated  at  the  west  end  of  the  nave,  (or  body  of  the 
church,)  is  twenty  feet  square,  running  up  eighty-five  feet,  where  it 
is  surmounted  by  an  octagonal  spire,  ornamented  at  the  angles  by 
crockets,  and,  of  itself,  eighty-six  feet  high,  making  the  conjoined 
elevation  one  hundred  and  seventy-one  feet,  which  is  built  entirely  of 
stone. 

The  interior  of  the  church  is  divided  into  a  nave,  and  two  aisles— 
the  former  of  which  is  separated  from  the  latter  by  pillars  and 
arches,  over  which,  in  the  inside,  is  a  clerestory.  At  the  west  end  of 
the  church,  in  the  tower,  is  the  organ  :  at  the  other  extremity,  divided 
from  the  church  by  a  rich  screen,  attached  to  which  is  the  pulpit,  is 
the  chapel,  which  runs  longitudinally  across  the  church,  affording 
ample  room  for  services  held  during  the  week. 

Across  the  aisles,  and  resting  on  the  pillars  of  the  nave,  and  on  the 
side  walls  of  the  church,  are  galleries.  The  pews,  pulpit,  and  other 
furniture  of  the  church,  are  of  black  walnut.  The  windows  are 
glazed  with  enamelled  glass,  having  rich  heads  and  borders.  And 
covering  all  is  an  open  roof,  supported  by  an  arched  principal  at 
each  intercolumn,  painted  a  dark  color  about  the  shade  ot  black  wal- 
nut.   R.  Upjohn,  Architect.  . .

even  by  the  side  of  the  splendid  New- York  University. 

St.  Patrick's  Roman  Catholic  Cathedral — Is  of  stone,  120  feet 
long  and  SO  feet  wide,  but  is  more  distinguished  for  its  magnitude

St.  G-eorge's  (Protestant  Episcopal)  Church. 

This  church  is  located  on  Rutherford  Place,  between  E.  Sixteenth 
and  E.  Seventeenth  streets,  fronting  on  Stuvvesant  Square,  (a  new 
Square  recently  laid  out;)  a  neighborhood,  which,  although  not  yet 
thickly  built  upon,  must  in  a  short  time  become  one  of  the  most 
fashionable  quarters  of  the  city— of  which  this  edifice  will  form  the 
principal  ornament. 
It  has  a  front  of  94  feet,  and  is  163  feet  deep.  The  architecture  is 
ri  ?>'zantium  order;  its  details  are  very  massive:  the  whole 
edifice  is  a  model  of  strength  and  durability.    The  spires  not  yet 


A  BIRD'S-EYE  view 


being  added,  it  at  present  furnishes  but  little  evidence  of  the  grandeur 
of  the  original  design. 
The  interior  is  very  elegant. 

St.  George's  Church  is  "(with  the  exception  of  Trinity)  the  oldest 
Protestant  "Episcopal  Congregation  in  the  city;  their  old  edifice  in 
Beekman  street,  corner  of  Clifford,  having  been  first  erected  in  1752. 
In  1811,  it  was  separated  from  Trinity,  and  became  a  distinct  parish. 
In  1314,  the  first  edifice  was  destroyed  by  fire,  but  was  promptly  re- 
built, and  still  stands. 


Odd  Fellows'  Hall. 

This  hall,  designed  for  the  accommodation  of  the  Grand  Lodge  and 
Encampment,  and  many  of  the  subordinate  Lodges,  is  situated  on  the 
corner  of  Grand  and  Centre  and  Orange  streets,  being  73  feet  8 
inches  on  Centre  street,  70  feet  9  inches"  on  Grand,  and  105  feet  on 
Orange  street. 

The  building  is  of  brown  freestone,  and,  being  much  higher  than 
any  surrounding  edifices,  is  a  prominent  feature  of  the  central  part  of 
the  city.  Its  entire  cost  was  about  $125,000.  The  Hall  Association 
is  a  chartered  Company,  and  the  stock  is  held  principally  by  the 
Lodges  meeting  therein. 

The  basement  is  occupied  as  a  restaurant.  The  first  story  is 
divided  into  six  spacious  stores,  and  contains  apartments  for  the 
keeper  of  the  building. 

On  the  second  floor  are  the  offices  of  Grand  Secretary  of  the  Ordef 
in  this  State,  Grand  Scribe  of  the  Patriarchal  Branch,  Odd  Fellows' 
Hall  Association,  the  Post  Office  of  the  Order,  the  Banner  Room, 
in  which  the  splendid  banners  of  the  Lodges  and  Encampments  oc- 
cupying the  hall  are  deposited  ;  the  library^room  ;  and 

The  Antique  Room,  about  40  by  32,  is  fitted  up  in  antique  style,  the 
painting  being  elaborate  and  highly  finished.

On  the  third  floor  arc  the  Corinthian  Room,  51^  by  33>£  feet, 
occupying  the  northwest  corner  of  the  hall,  finished  in  the  pure  style 
of  this  favorite  order  of  architecture.  This  is  the  largest  Lodge- 
room. 

The  Egyptian  Room,  on  the  northeast  comer,  is  the  most  elaborate 
and  appropriate  room  in  the  Hall.  The  room  is  47  by  37  feet. 
Twelve  highly  ornamented  and  massive  columns  support  a  heavy 
cornice,  from  which  the  ceiling  springs  obliquely,  giving  something 
the  appearance  of  a  dome.  The  ceiling  is  divided  into  panels,  on 
each  side  of  which  is  painted  some  appropriate  device.  Other 
panels,  and  indeed  the  entire  walls,  pillars,  and  ceiling  of  the  room, 
are  covered  with  hieroglyphical  pictures,  characteristic  of  the  old 
Egyptian  mysteries  and  mythology.  The  names  of  the  Board  of 
Managers  of  the  Hall,  and  the  date  of  its  commencement  and  comple- 
tion, are  written  in  hieroglyphics  in  proper  places  on  the  wall :  also 
the  names  of  the  Past  Grand  Sires  ol  the  Order. 

The  Elizabethan  Room,  39 %  by  32  feet— done  in  the.  massive  and 
elaborate  style  of  the  age  of  Queen  Bess — occupies  the  remainder  of 
this  floor.  The  painting  of  this  room  is  a  fine  piece  of  workmanship. 

Ascending  to  the  fourth  floor,  we  find  the  Gothic  Room.  This 
room  is  over  the  Egyptian,  and  of  like  dimensions,  finished  with 
eight  full  pendants  in  the  ceiling,  and  twelve  half  pendants  along  the 
walls.  These  are  painted  of  a  lightish  color,  in  panels,  with  appro- 
priate armorial  bearings  inscribed  thereon. 

The  Doric  Room — the  last  of  the  regular  Lodge  rooms — a  beautiful 
little  room,  over  and  corresponding  In  size  with  the  Elizabethan. 
The  pure,  plain  Doric  is  here  shown ;  not  a  decoration,  not  a  super- 
fluous part,  but  so  very  plain,  that  the  contrast  is  striking  and 
pleasing,  after  a  survey  of  the  ornate  and  gaudy  Antique  and  Eliza- 
bethan. 

The  Persian  Room  is  intended  for  Encampments.  The  room  is 
oval  in  form ;  the  painting  is  light  and  graceful,  and  reminds  the 
visitor  of  the  beautilul  palaces  told  of  in  the  story  of  Aladdin  and  the 
Wonderful  Lamp. 

The  fifth  and  last  floor  is  occupied  by  the  Rotunda,  for  the  meet- 
ings of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the  State,  and  has  a  large  room  for  com- 
mittees. The  Rotunda  is  circular,  73  feet  in  diameter ;  in  the  centre 
one  large  dome  window,  and  windows  on  three  sides :  the  roof  sup- 
ported by  a  circle  of  small  iron  columns. 

The  Deaf  and  Dumb  Asylum — Is  on  Fiftieth  street,  near  Avenue 
Fourth,  or  Harlem  Railroad,  and  is  110  feet  long  and  60  feet  wide, 
and  will  accommodate  a  large  number  of  pupils,  with  the  teachers 
and  family  of  the  principal.  It  is  under  a  principal  and  eight  profes- 
sors. Persons  who  wish  to  visit  it  by  the  public  conveyances  should 
proceed  to  the  junction  of  Chatham  and  Centre  streets,  opposite  the 
City  Hall.  From  this 'point  the  cars  for  Harlem  leave  frequently 
during  the  day,  and  pass  directly  by  the  Institution,  where  they  stop 
to  receive  and  land  passengers. 

The  Institution  for  the  Blind— Is  on  Avenue  Ninth,  near  Thirty 
third  street,  and  has  about  70  pupils. 

The  New  -  York  Hospital,  at  319  Broadway,  is  a  collection  of  ex- 
tensive buildings,  in  a  handsome  situation,  with  a  fine  yard.

The  American  Art-Union, 

FOR  THE  PROMOTION  OF  THE  FINE  ARTS  IN  THE  UNITED,  STATES. 

Incorporated  by  the  Legislature  of  the  State  of  New  -  York, 
7th  May,  1840. 

At  the  first  distribution  in  1839,  the  number  of  paintings  was  36. 
The  next  year  an  engraving  was  presented  to  each  member,  and  only 
14  Works  of  Art  distributed  at  its  close  ;  at  the  end  of  the  third  year, 
but  seven  were  distributed.  The  exhibitions  of  the  institution  con- 
taining works  of  great  merit,  and  kept  open  to  the  public  at  great 
expense,  were  but  poorly  attended  ;  and  the  Committee,  discouraged 
by  the  ill-success  of  their  endeavors,  with  but  few  exceptions,  de- 
clined re-election.  That  few,  however,  did  not  despair  of  its  ulti- 
mate success.  Other  gentlemen  were  added  to  the  Committee,  and 
they  then  determined  to  abandon  the  exhibition^_reduce  expenses, 
personally  to  solicit  subscriptions,  and  by  vigorous  efforts  to  revive 
the  institution,  and,  if  possible,  realize  the  ^original  designs  of  the 
friends  of  American  Art. 

This  is,  in  every  sense,  a  National  Institution.,  Under  the  efforts  of 
its  managers  it  has  continued  to  increase  in  favor  and  usefulness. 
Its  income  from  $5,000  has  reached  $80,000.  The  number  of  mem- 
bers, from  937  to  16,475.  Its  distribution,  from  seven  Works  of  Art, 
costing  about  $2000,  to  929,  costing  more  than  $60,000. 

The~mstitution  has  distributed  about  2000  Works  of  Art,  painted  by 
231  different  artist3,  residing  in  fifty  towns  in  sixteen  States  and  Ter- 
ritories, from  Maine  to  Louisiana ;  in  Rome,  Florence,  Dusseldorf, 
Paris,  and  London. 

Engravings,  etchings,  and  outlines,  to  the  number  of  more  than 
150,000  copies,  have  been  distributed  throughout  the  Union. 

It  has  more  than  500  agencies,  embracing  every  State  in  the 
Union,  and  the  neighboring  nations ;  and  now  offers  to  citizens  and 
strangers  free  access  to  its  two  large  galleries,  (of  which  a  view  is  in- 
serted on  the  opposite  page,)  filled  with  paintings.  The  early 
hopes  for  the  success  of  the  enterprise  are  more  than  realized,  and  its 
rapid  increase  has  surpassed  the  expectation  of  those  who  never 
doubted  that,  its  mission  was  to  be  one  of  great  good,  and  who  have 
never  withdrawn  their  services. 

Each  person  who  becomes  a  member  of  this  truly  National  Institu- 
tion, contributes  thereby  to  sustain  the  cause  of  Art  in  our  country,  at 
the  same  time  that  he  receives  in  return  the  full  value  of  his  sub- 
scription in  works  calculated  to  elevate  and  refine  the  minds  of  their 
possessors. 

The  splendid  galleries  are  located  at  No.  497,  Broadway,  afew  doors 
above  Broome  street,  in  this  city. 

Every  subscriber  of  $5  is  a  member  for  the  year.  The  money 
thus  obtained  is  applied,  first,  to  the  production  of  a  large  original 
engraving  of  an  American,  painting,  a  set  of  outlines,  &c. ;  second,  to 
the  purchase  of  paintings  and  sculpture,  striking  of  medals,  casting 
of  bronzed  statuettes,  &c.  These  works  are  distributed  each  year  at 
the  annual  meeting  in  December,  each  member  having  one  share  for 
every  $5  paid.  Members  also  receive  the  volume  of  that  year's 
"Transactions,"  and  the  monthly  "Bulletin  of  Art:"  these  works 
are  illustrated.  Persons  can  become  members  by  applying  to  any  of 
the  Honorary  Secretaries  at  their  respective  places,  or  to  Andrew 
Warner,  Esq.,  Corresponding  Secretary,  New- York.

complished artists,  they  will  oner  their  Spring  Exhibition  to  the  public 

We  give  on  the  opposite  page  a  view  of  the  staircase,  leading  to  the 
exhibit  ion- rooms,  reduced  from  the  original  design,  which  (when 
finished)  will  be  an  exquisite  piece  of  workmanship,~both  in  construc- 
tion and  decoration. 

Besides  those  already  described,  the  city  boasts  of  numerous  other 
very  elegant  public  edifices,  of  which  our  space  precludes  a  par- 
ticular description.   Among  these,  are— 

The  University,  University  Place,  corner  of  Washington  Place. 

Columbia  College,  Foot  of  Park  Place. 

The  Lunatic  Asylum,  117th  street,  near  Tenth  Avenue. 

The  A  ursery  Buildings,  at  Randall's  Island. 

The  Penitentiary,  ana  buildings  connected  therewith,  at  Black- 
well's  Island ;  and 

The  Croton  Water-  Works—  The  Aqueduct  commences  at  the 
Croton  River,  five  miles  f/om  the  Hudson  River,  in  Westchester 
County.  The  dam  is  250  feet  long,  70  feet  wide  at  bottom,  7  at  top. 
and  40  feet  high,  and  built  of  stone  and  cement.  It  creates  a  pona 
five  miles  long,  covering  an  extent  of  400  acres,  and  contains 
500,000,000  gallons  of  water.  From  the  dam  the  Aqueduct  proceeds, 
sometimes  tunnelling  through  solid  rocks,  crossing  valleys  by  em- 
bankments and  brooks  by  culverts,  until  it  reaches  Harlem  River — a 
distance  of  thirty-three  miles.  It  is  built  of  stone,  brick  and  cement, 
arched  over  and  under,  6  feet  9  inches  wide  at  bottom,  7  feet  S  inches 
at  top  of  the  side  walls,  and  3  feet  5  inches  hieh :  it  has  a  descent  of 
13^  inches  per  mile,  and  will  discharge  60,000,000  of  gallons  every 
twenty-four  hours.  It  crosses  the  Harlem  River  on  a  magnificent 
bridge  of  stone,  U450  feet  in  length,  with  14  piers,  8  of  them  bearing 
arches  of  80  feet  span,  and  7  others  of  50  teet  span,  114  feet  above 
tide-water  at  the  top.  The  receiving  reservoir  at  86th  street,  38

gallons.  The  distributing  reservoir,  on  Murray's  Hill,  in  40th  street, 
covers  4  acres,  and  is  constructed  of  stone  and  cement,  45  feet  hisrh 
above  the  street,  and  holds  20.000,000  of  gallons.  Thence  the  waterls 
distributed  over  the  city  in  iron-pipes" laid  sufficiently  deep  under 
ground  to  protect  them  from  frost.

The  New  State  Arsenal, 

Is  an  imposing  edifice,  200  feet  front  by  50  feet  deep,  exclusive  of  the 
towers,— being  the  largest  building  of  the  kind  in  the  State,  located  on 
the  Fifth  Avenue,  between  62d  and  64th  streets,  four  miles  from  the 
City  Hall ;  but  brought  within  the  view  of  the  reader  by  the  cut  on 
the  opposite  page  :  "or,  if  this  is  not  satisfactory,  the  cars  of  the 
Harlem  Railroad,  or  Sixty-first  street  stages,  will  convey  him  to  the 
spot  at  almost  any  hour. 

It  is  constructed  of  brick,  with  the  exception  of  the  first  story, 
which  is  of  brown  stone,  and  has  at  each  of  its  angles  an  octagonal 
tower,  69  feet  high,  besides  four  others — two  in  front,  and  two  in  the 
rear  of  the  building  ;  each  82  feet  in  height. 

A  sub-cellar,  under  the  north  wing  of  the  building,  is  to  be  occu- 
pied by  the  old  Revolutionary  pieces.  The  basement,  which  is  10 
feet  high,  and  is  one  large  hall,  extending  the  whole  length  and 
breadth' of  the  building,  is  for  heavy  cannon  and  balls.  The  principal 
story,  12  feet  6  inches  in  height,  will  be  tenanted  by  the  small  arms. 
The  second  story,  9  feet  6  inches  in  height,  by  munitions ;  and  the 
upper  story,  16  feet  high,  by  gun-carriages,  &c,  <fec. 

The  bearing-beams  "are  supported  by  Gothic  cast-iron  columns; 
the  floors  throughout  the  building  are  of  Georgia  pine,  with  the 
exception  of  the  basement :  the  roof  is  iron,  above~which  is  a  liberty- 
pole,  68  feet  in  height. 

The  work  was  commenced  on  the  13th  July,  and  completed  on 
the  15th  November,  1848.  at  a  cost  of  $30,000. 

Building  Committee.— Millard  Fillmore,  Comptroller;  Christo- 
pher Morgan,  Secretary  of  Stale;  Alvah  Hunt,  State  Treasurer ; 
Ambrose  L.  Jordan,  Attorney-  General ;  Charles  B.  Stewart,  Chief 
Engineer  and  Surveyor  ;  Samuel  Strong,  Superintendent ;  John 
Young,  Governor ;  John  Stewart,  Commissary  General. 

In  the  rear  of  the  main  building  is  a  small  magazine. 

The  old  arsenal,  which  yet  contains  most  of  the  arms  and  munitions 
of  the  State  stored  in  this  city,  is  on  Centre  street,  between  Franklin 
and  White.  Its  contents  at  the  time  of  the  last  Report  of  the  Commis- 
sary General,  (31st  December,  1848,)  consisted  in  part  of  96  pieces  of 
field  artillery,  among  which  were  5  cannon  surrendered  to  the  Ameri- 
cans by  the  capitulation  of  St.  John's,  November  25th,  1775 ;  6  sur- 
rendered by  the  Convention  of  Saratoga,  October  17th,  1777;  6  cap- 
tured at  Princeton,  January  3d,  1777  ;  and  two  brass  three  pounders, 
taken  from  General  Burgoyne  ;  7848  serviceable  muskets,  888  rifles, 
and  800  carbines. 

This  spot  was  occupied  for  a  magazine,  as  early  as  1675,  during 
which  year  a  public  slaughter-house  was  erected  here,  a  loft  over 
which  was  used  as  a  powder-house.  In  1728,  the  island  was  appro- 
priated "  as  the  most  convenient  place  for  building  thereon  a  maga- 
zine, or  powder- house."    The  present  building  was  erected  in  1808. 

Theatres  and  Amusements 

The  Broadway  Theatre,  under  the  management  of  E.  A.  Mar- 
shall, is  the  finest  theatre  in  the  city,  and  generally  has  the  highest 
class  of  entertainments,  presenting  a  succession  of  the  principal  ~stars 
who  emigrate  to  this  country  from  Europe.  It  is  a  very  prosperous 
institution. 

Burton's  Theatre,  in  Chambers  street,  a  few  doors  east  of  Broad-

A  bird's-eye  view 


way,  is  a  popular  resort  for  all  who  are  fond  of  fun  and  burlesque. 
It  is  usually  crowded. 

The  Olympic,  in  Broadway,  between  Howard  and  Grand  streets,  is 
an  establishment  very  similar  in  its  character  to  Burton's. 

Niblo's  is  too  well  known  all  over  the  Union  to  require  particular 
notice.  It  is  now  handsomely  rebuilt,  and  is  more  popular  than  ever. 

The  Bowery  is  the  great  central  attraction,  not  only  of  the  impor- 
tant Avenue  whose  name  it  bears,  but  of  the  whole  region  round 
about.  The  performances  here  are  of  the  most  energetic" character, 
and  generally  it  is  a  very  interesting  place  to  visit. 

The  National— -This  is  situated' at  the  foot  of  Chatham  Square, 
and  is  a  flourishing  melo-dramatic  theatre. 

The  American  Museum,  on  the  corner  of  Broadway  and  Ann 
street — Christy's  Minstrels,  <fcc,  &c,  are  all  much  frequented. 

Italian  Opera  House. — This  elegant  and  aristocratic  establishment 
is  located  in  Astor  Place,  just  east  of  Broadway. 

Cemeteries. 

The  rural  Cemeteries  in  the  neighborhood  of  New- York,  particu- 
larly Greenwood,  and  the  Trinity  Church  Cemeteiy,  are  well  worth 
a  visit— being  handsomely  laid  out  into  walks,  and  adorned  with 
many  monuments  of  great  beauty.  The  former  is  situated  in 
Brooklyn,  about  two  miles  and  a  half  from  the  South  ferry,  and 
commands  beautiful  views  of  the  bay  and  harbor,  with  its  islands  and 
forts,  the  cities  of  New- York  and  Brooklyn,  the  shores  of  the  North 
and  East  rivers,  New  Jersey,  Staten  Island,  the  Quarantine,  and 
numerous  towns  and  villages  in  every  direction ;  together  with  that 
part  of  the  Atlantic  Ocean'extending  from  Sandy  Hook  to  the  Rocka- 
way  Pavilion.  Tickets  of  admission  may  be  obtained  at  the  Office, 
No.  64,  Broadway. 

Trinity  Cemetery  is  situated  on  the  high  grounds  near  Manhattan- 
ville,  extending  from  153d  to  155th  street," and  from  the  Tenth  Avenue 
to  the  river. 

The  grounds,  giving  a  view  of  the  Hudson  River,  Highlands,  and 
Jersey  shore,  Harlem,  the  Sound,  and  shores  of  Long  Island,  are 
tastefully  laid  out  in  avenues  and  walks,  well  covered  with  a  great 
variety  of  ornamental  trees,  evergreens,  and  shrubbery. 

Besides  these,  are  the  Cypress  Hills  Cemetery,  situated  also  on  Long 
Island,  about  five  miles  from  the  Brooklyn  ferry ;  the  New- York 
Bay  Cemetery,  on  the  shores  of  the  Bay,  in  New  Jersey ;  the  Oak 
Hill  Cemetery,  at  Nyack,  and  the  Rockland  Cemetery,  near  Pier- 
mont— which,  although  but  recently  established,  and  partially  laid 
out,  all  possess  excellent  locations,  and  afford  fine  views  of  the  adja- 
cent country. 

After  calling  the  attention  of  the  reader  to  the  advertising  pages  in 
the  front  and  back  of  this  book,  (which  may  occasionally  be  perused 
to  his  profit,)  the  names  appended  to  which  advertisements  will  be 
readily  recognized  by  those  who  are  familiar  with  the  business  of  our 
city,  as  those  of  individuals  and  firms  who  have  for  many  years  sus- 
tained an  enviable  reputation  in  their  respective  lines  of  business ; 
and  whose  establishments  are  none  the  less  ''celebrated"  by  reason  of 
not  being  particularly  mentioned  here we  proceed  to  give  both 
pictorial  and  letter-press  details  of  a  few  of  the  more  attractive

CELEBRATED  ESTABLISHMENTS. 


D.  &  J.  Devlin's  Clothing  Warehouse. 

There  is  no  establishment  in  our  city  attracting  more  attention  at 
present  than  this  great  Clothing  House.  We  cannot  notice  it  better 
than  by  giving  an  extract  from  an  article  in  Hunt's  Merchants' 
Magazine,  for  January,  on  the  Clothing  Trade  :— 

"  The  number  of  hands  employed,  or  families  supported  in  the 
manufacture  of  clothing  in  New- York,  we  have  no  reliable  data  to 
show ;  but  we  will  merely  take  a  glance  at  one  of  the  largest  and 
most  enterprising  cloihing  establishments  in  our  city,  namely,  the 
house  of  D.  <fe  J.  Devlin,  in  John-street,  as  proof  in  part  of  the  truth 
of  our  position. 

"  The  Messrs.  Devlin  do  both  a  very  large  wholesale,  and  a  very 
extensive  and  fashionable  retail,  trade.  Their  establishment,  at  the 
corner  of  John  and  Nassau  streets,  occupies  two  houses ;  one  entire 
floor  is  devoted  to  the  city  and  retail  business  ;  another  to  the  cloth 
and  custom  department ;  another  to  the  wholesale  department ; 
another,  containing  several  well  lighted  rooms,  to  the  cutting  depart- 
ment ;  and  the  large  basement  is  stored  with  their  immense  stock  of 
heavy  woollens  and  trimmings.  The  economy  of  such  an  establish- 
ment requires  great  attention  to  detail,  and  the  admirable  manage- 
ment of  the  enterprising  proprietors  is  a  model  in  its  way.  Their 
cutters  are  classified  into  four  departments:  one  department  ex- 
clusively for  coats;  a  second  for  pants;  a  third  for  vests;  and  a 
fourth  for  trimmings ;  with  a  foreman,  whose  duty  it  is  to  supply  the 
cutters  with  work,  to  employ  hands,  and  to  give  out  and  receive  the 
garments  from  them.  The  hands  are  also  classed  (according  to  their 
skill,  capacity,  and  promptness)  into  grades — they  earn  from  $3  up 
to  $15  per  week ;  and  some  piece-masters,  who  have  many  hands 
under  them,  draw  from  $25  to  8150  per  week.  The  number  of 
hands  employed  in  working  for  this  establishment,  including  those 
employed  by  the  piece-masters,  rarely  falls  short  of  2,000,  many  of 
these  supporting  large  families.  They  are  scarcely  ever  out  of 
work,  for  the  wholesale  and  retail  trade  so  dovetail  into  each  other, 
that  before  the  country  trade  is  over  the  city  trade  commences,  ana 
vice  vei>a.  Their  corps  of  salesmen,  clerks,  &c,  are  well  appointed 
and  complete.  This  will  give  some  idea  of  the  importance  of  thid 
manufacture  in  New- York;  and  when  we  add  to  it  the  fact,  that  the 
Messrs.  Devlin,  like  many  other  establishments  in  the  city,  supply 
the  retail  merchants  in  the  most  widely  separated  States,  North, 
South,  and  West,  with  stocks  of  clothing,  especially  suited  to  their 
various  localities,  and  this  to  an  unlimited  extent,  we  hazard  little  in 
saying  that  the  clothing  trade  is  fast  increasing  in  importance,  not 
only  to  the  manufacturing  interests,  but  to  the  commerce  of  cur 
country."

Locke's  Patent  Portable  Chamber,  Vapor,  Douche,  and 
Shower  Baths,  manufactured  and  sold,  wholesale  and 

RETAIL,  BY  JOHN  LOCKE,  47  ANN  STREET,  NEW-YORK. — TllIS  Bath 

is  acknowledged,  by  all  who  have  used  it,  to  be,  superior  to  any 
thing  ever  manufactured  for  the  purpose.  It  has  received  the  fol- 
lowing premiums:  In  1847,  at  the  Fair  of. the  American  Institute, 
N.  Y.,  a  Diploma;  at  the  Rensselaer  County  JPair,  Troy,  N.  Y.,  a 
Diploma;  in  1S48,  at  the  State  Fair  in  Saratoga,  N.  Y..  a  Silver 
Medal ;  at  the  Fair  of  the  American  Institute,  N.  Y.,  1848,  a  Silver 
Medal;  and  at  the  late  Fair  of  the  Institute,  1849,  a  Diploma;  in 
competition  with  many  others,  and  is  highly  recommended  by  the 
most  scientific  men'. 

It  may  be  converted  into  a  simple  or  medicated  Vapor  Bath,  by  at- 
taching small  apparatus  with  a  spirit  lamp,  which  is  sold  with  the 
Bath  if  required. 

Prices  range  from  S3  to  $18.  Steam  Generator,  with  its  appurte- 
nances, 35.  Persons  at  a  distance  desiring  further  information  relative 
to  size,  style  of  finish,  and  prices,  can,  by  addressing  the  subscriber, 
be  furnished  with  a  circular  containing  particulars. 

Recommendations.—  From  W.  A.  Hamilton,  M.  Z).,  Dr.  of  the 
Troy  Hydropathic  Inst. — u  Families  who  have  not  room,  or  are  not 
able  to  fit  up  a  bathing  apparatus,  can  buy  one  of  Locke's  Shower 
Baths,  which  contains  all  the  essentials  of  a  more  expensive  bathing 
room.    This  is  one  of  the  best  baths,  and  should  be  in  every  family." 

From  Dr.  Shew's  Water  Cure  Journal '.  — k*  This  Bath  has  many 
advantages  not  found  in  any  other,  i.  The  water  is  elevated  by 
means  of  a  crank  and  pulley,  requiring  but  slisrht  effort,  and  which  is 
not  liable  to  get  out  of  order.  2.  The  bath  may  be  used  either  in  the 
form  of  shower  or  douche  ;  and  a  liberal  supply  of  water  is  given  at 
a  time  ;  and  by  placing  a  cork  in  the  bottom  of  the  apparatus,  it  is 
conveniently  used  as  a  hip  bath,  or  bathing  tub." 

Remarks'  by  O.  S.  Fowler,  Ed.  Am."  Phrenological  Journal. — 
"  Shower  bathing  is  one  of  the  best  forms,  because  its  sudden  shock 
causes  that  reaction  and  healthful  glow  so  absolutely  indispensable. 
This  is  facilitated  by  bathing  immediately  on  rising,  because  the 
warm  and  moist  state  of  the  body  every  way  promotes  this  reaction. 
To  females,  this  chamber  bath  is  doubly  advantageous,  being  easily 
charged  even  by  a  child.  Locke's  Patent  Shower.  Douche,  and  Vapor 
Bath  should  be" extensively  used.  I  decidedly  prefer  it  to  all  others. 
In  the  water  cure,  it  will  be  found  incomparably  superior  to  all 
others." 

Extract  from  2d  Edition  of  Dr.  PoirelVs  Book  on  the  Eye.—"  I 
decidedly  prefer  Locke's  Patent  Combination  Bath  to  all  others.  It 
combines  economy,  durability,  simplicity,  and  portability.  Mr.  Locke 
has  further  added  to  its  usefulness  by  connecting  to  the  reservoir  a 
fine  tube,  which  answers  an  excellent  purpose  as  an  eye  fountain." 

From  F.  Hunt.  Esq.,  Editor  of  Hunt's  Merchant's  Mag.— "I 
consider  your  Bath  superior  in  every  particular  to  those  with  weights. 
Its  convenience  and  its  facility  of  application  render  it  a  necessary 
article  of  furniture  in  every  house."

The  Wholesale  Clothing  Establishment  of  Messrs. 
Lewis  and  IIanfcrd,  Nos.  252,  254,  256,  and  258  Pearl 
street. — Of  the  great  number  of  houses  engaged  in  the  Clothing 
Trade  which  have  become  established  in  public  favor,  few  in  our 
city  present  greater  claims  to  our  notice  than  the  one  of  which  we 
now  speak.  This  house  was  first  established  in  Boston  in  1824,  but 
has  for  fourteen  years  past  been  located  in  this  city ;  and  whether 
considered  in  regard  to  the  experience  of  the  members  of  the  Tu  rn 
in  their  particular  line,  the  care  exercised  in  the  purchase  of  goods, 
or  the  excellent  workmanship  of  the  various  articles  offered  for  sale, 
this  establishment  occupies  an  enviable  position  among  the  many 
similar  establishments  in  our  city. 

It  may  be  interesting  for  the  visitor  to  the  city  to  know,  while  at  the 
same  time  it  gives  a  fair  insight  into  the  magnitude  of  their  business, 
that  Messrs.  Lewis  and  Hanford  employ  in  the  prosecution  of  their 
business,  75  persons  upon  the  premises,  and  upwards  of  4.000  others 
in  the  making  up  of  work;  that  it  cut  from  the  1st  of  November, 
1848,  to  the  14th  of  July,  1849,  249,510  garments,  being  an  average  ol 
1135  per  day;  and  that  it  occupies  four  entire  stores,  comprising  17 
spacious  rooms  for  their  manufacture  and  sale  !  Occupying  for  the 
varied  operations  of  their  business  these  extensive  apartments,  and 
employing  only  the  most  skilful  operatives,  this  firm  lias  established 
a  reputation  for  business  capabilities  at  once  extensively  known  and 
highly  creditable.  The  perlect  organization  of  their  vast  operations, 
the  fairness  of  their  terms,  and  the  fidelity  by  which  their  dealings 
are  characterized,  speak  loudly  in  their  praise,  and  are  the  true 
secrets  of  their  great  success.

This  extensive  establishment,  for  the  sale  of  Dry  Goods,  at  whole- 
sale or  retail,  is  one  of  the  most  popular  in  the  United  Stales.  The 
plan  upon  which  business  is  carried  on  at  this  institution  is  entirely 
novel,  and  by  an  up-town  concern  heretofore  unattempted.  1st.  All 
the  Foreign  Goods  in  the  store  are  imported  by  the  concern,  or  bought 
from  the  large  auctions.  2d.  All  the  Domestic  Goods  are  received 
from  the  factories  direct,  under  an  arrangement  between  the  proprie- 
tors and  the  manufacturers,  and  goods  are  thereby  obtained  at  the 
lowest  possible  prices ;  and  the  advantages,  and  all  the  saving  which 
under  the  ordinary  mode  of  doing  business  is  paid  to  the  importer, 
jobber,  or  agent,  is  reserved  for  and  allowed  to  the  consumer  and  pur-

At  the  Establishment  of  the  Messrs.  Berrians,  of  which  we  give 
the  view  above,  may  be  found,  we  believe,  the  largest,  most  varied, 
and  complete  assortment  of  House  Furnishing  Articles  to  be 
found  in  America. 

To  tnose  of  our  readers  who  have  not  yet  visited  this  extensive 
establishment,  we  would  say  that  they  will  here  find,  under  one  roof, 
a  great  variety  of  beautiful  Fancy  Articles,  together  with  all  of  those 
domestic  conveniences  which  aid  and  facilitate  the  daily  operations 
of  the  housekeeper,  rendering  her  duties  more  agreeable  and  far  less 
laborious  than  they  were  in  the  days  of  our  ancestors. 

The  Berrians  do  a  large  and  rapidly  increasing  wholesale  business, 
which  enables  them  (by  importing  large  quantities)  to  sell  their  foreign 
fancy  and  staple  articles  at  lower  prices  than  they  are  usually  sold 
for.  To  enumerate  the  various  articles  embraced  in  their  assort- 
ment would  fill,  we  presume,  a  book  the  size  of  this.  We  would 
therefore  simply  say,  that  should  any  of  our  readers  need  any  thing 
in  the  way  of  Cutlery,  Silver-plated  Ware,  Japannery,  German  Sil- 
ver, Albata,  or  Britannia  Wares,  Cooking  Utensils,  Bronze,  Copper, 
or  Brass  Goods,  Bathing  Apparatus,  Tin,  Wood,  or  Willow  Wares,

AN  ACT 

TO  AMEND  THE  CHARTER  OF  THE  CITY  OF  NEW-YORK. 

Passed  April  2d,  1849. 


Section  I.  The  legislative  power  of  the  Corporation  of  the  City  of 
New- York  shall  continue  to  be  vested  in  a  Board  of  Aldermen  and  a 
Board  of  Assistant  Aldermen,  who,  together,  shall  form  the  Common 
Council  of  the  City.  The  Board  of  Aldermen  shall  consist  of  one 
Alderman  from  each  Ward,  who  shall  be  elected  by  the  people  of  the 
respective  Wards  for  two  years.  The  Board  of  Assistant  Aldermen 
shall  consist  of  one  Assistant  Alderman  from  each  Ward,  who  shall 
be  elected  in  like  manner,  and  shall  hold  their  office  for  one  year. 

Sec.  2.  The  election  for  Charter  Offices  shall  be  held  on  the  day 
of  the  general  State  election,  when  all  Charter  officers  eligible  by  the 
people  shall  be  chosen,  and  the  officers  who  shall  be  elected  shall  be 
sworn  into  office  on  the  first  Monday  of  January  thereafter  ;  and  the 
laws  of  the  State  regulating  elections  shall  apply  to  elections  of 
Charter  Officers  ;  but  the  Common  Council  may,  by  law,  extend  the 
time  for  the  canvass  of  the  votes.  The  Mayor  shall  hold  his  office  for 
a  period  of  two  years. 

Sec.  3.  The  Common  Council,  during  the  year  one  thousand  eight 
hundred  and  fifty,  may  hold  its  sessions  as  often  as  each  Board  shall

ally hold  only  three  stated  sessions  of  not  exceeding  one  month  each, 
commencing  on  the  first  Monday  of  January,  May,  and  September. 
The  Mayor  may  convene  the  Common  Council,  or  the  Board  of 
Aldermen  only,  at  any  time  between  the  sessions,  if,  in  his  judg- 
ment, any  exigency  shall  have  arisen  to  render  such  a  proceeding 
necessary,  on  the  request,  in  writing,  of  a  majority  of  the  members 
elected  to  each  Board,  specifying"  the  purposes  for  which  such 
meeting  is  called  ;  in  which  case  the  action  of  the  Common  Council 
shall  be  confined  to  the  matters  in  reference  to  which  it  shall  have 
been  so  convened,  or  to  such  other  matters  as  may  be  submitted  by 
the  Mayor  for  its  consideration  during  such  session  ;  and  the  respec-

smaller  number  may  adjourn  from  day  to  day,  and  may  compel  the 
attendance  of  absent  members.  Each  Board  shall  appoint  a  President 
from  its  own  body  ;  shall  choose  its  clerk  and  other  officers ;  determine 
the  rules  of  its  own  proceedings ;  be  the  judge  of  the  election  returns  and

no  effect  unless  it  contain  a  provision  for  a  special  election  within  two 
weeks  thereafter  to  supply  such  vacancy ;  provided,  however,  that 
such  special  election  shall  not  be  ordered  unless  there  be  at  least  two 
months  of  the  term  of  the  expelled  member  unexpired.    The  Clerk

shall  be  his  duty  to  keep  open  for  inspection  at  all  reasonable  times  j 
the  records  and  minutes  of  the  proceedings  of  the  Common  Council,  I 
except  such  as  shall  be  specially  ordered  otherwise.    The  two  j 
Boards  shall  have  concurrent  powers,  and  a  negative  on  each  other's 
proceedings,  and  shall  in  all  cases  act  as  separate  bodies,  and  shall 
not  appoint  Joint  Committees,  except  a  Committee  on  Accounts. 
Each  Board  may  originate,  amend,  concur  in,  or  reject  any  law,  or 
dinance,  or  resolution;  but  no  law  shall  pass  either  Board  except  by 
a  majority  of  the  members  elected.    Neither  Board  shall  adjourn  for 
a  longer  period  than  three  days,  except  by  a  resolution  to  be  con- 
curred in  by  the  other  body. 

Sec.  5.  It  shall  be*  the  duty  of  the  Clerks  of  the  respective  Boards 
to  publish  all  ordinances  and  amendments  of  ordinances  which  shall 
be  passed,  and  also  the  proceedings  in  the  newspapers  employed  by 
the  Corporation,  ex'cept  such  parts  as  may  require  secrecy ;  and 
whenever  a  vote  shall  be  taken  in  either  Board,  upon  the  passage  of 
a  resolution  or  ordinance  which  shall  contemplate  any  specific  im- 
provement, or  involve  the  sale,  disposition,  or  appropriation  of  pub-  , 
lie  property,  or  the  expenditure  of  public  moneys  or  incomes 
therefrom,  or  lay  any  tax  or  assessment,  such  resolution  or  ordi- 
nance  shall?  before  the  same  shall  be  sent  to  the  other  Board, 
and  immediately  after  the  adjournment  of  the  Board  at  which 
the  same  shall  have  been  passed,  be  published  with  the  ayes  and  ' 
noes,  with  the  names  of  the  persons  voting  for  and  against  the  ! 
same,  in  at  least  two  newspapers,  as  a  part  of  the  proceedings  ;  and 
no  act,  resolution,  or  ordinance,  which  shall  have  passed  one  Board, 
shall  be  acted  upon  by  the  other  Board  on  the  same  day,  unless  by 
unanimous  consent,  except  in  case  of  invasion,  insurrection,  or  pesti- 
lence. 

Sec.  6.  If  any  ordinance  or  resolution  passed  by  each  Board,  as 
provided  by  sections  twelve  and  thirteen  of  the  Amended  Charter,  of 
one  thousand  eight  hundred  and  thirty,  shall  not  be  returned  by  the 
Mayor  within  ten  days  (Sundays  excepted)  after  it  shall  have  been 
presented  to  him,  the  same  shall  become  a  law  in  like  manner  as  if 
he  had  signed  it,  unless  the  close  of  the  session  of  the  Common 
Council  shall  prevent  its  return,  in  which  case  it  shall  not  be  a  law 
until  the  expiration  of  five  days  after  the  commencement  of  the  next 
session  of  the  Common  Council,  by  whom  the  ordinance  or  resolution 
shall  be  reconsidered,  if  returned  within  such  time,  and  be  disposed 
of  in  the  same  manner  and  with  like  effect  as  if  presented  at  the  pre- 
ceding session. 

Sec.  7.  No  money  shall  be  drawn  from  the  City  Treasury,  except 
the  same  shall  have  been  previously  appropriated  to  the  purpose  for 
which  it  is  drawn;  and  all  appropriations  shall  be  based  upon  spe- 
cific and  detailed  statements  in  writing  of  the  several  heads  of  the 
departments,  through  the  Comptroller.

thereof,  the  party  impeached  shall  not  exercise  any  of  the  functions 
of  his  office.  The  Board  of  Aldermen  shall  have  the  sole  power  to

concurrence  of  two-thirds  of  all  the  members  elected  to  said  Board. 
Judgment  in  case  of  impeachment  shall  not  extend  farther  than 
removal  from  office  and  disqualification  to  hold  any  office  under  the 
City  Charter ;  but  the  party  convicted  shall  be  liable  to  indictment, 
trial,  judgment,  and  punishment,  according  to  law.

118  CEMETERIES. 


GREEN-WOOD  CEMETERY, 

OFFICE— No.  64  BROADWAY. 

The  Grounds  of  this  Institution  now  comprise  250  acres.  They  are 
more  extensive  than  those  of  any  similar  Institution  in  this  country 
or  Europe,  and  are  entirely  free  from  incumbrance. 

These  Grounds  are  situated  in  Brooklyn,  on  Gowanus  Heights, 
about  two  and  a  half  miles  from  the  South  Ferry.  They  are  beauti- 
fully undulating  and  diversified,  presenting  continual  changes  of  sur- 
face and  scenery,  and  are  remarkably  adapted  to  the  purpose  for 
which  they  are  appropriated.  The  elevated  portions  of  the  Ceme- 
tery afford  numerous  and  interesting  views,  extending  in  every  direc- 
tion. 

The  Charter  of  this  Institution  was  obtained  in  1838,  but  the  grounds 
were  not  publicly  opened  for  interments  until  four  years  later.  Since 
then  the  improvements  made  have  been  numerous  and  important. 
The  natural  undulations  of  the  surface  have  been  greatly  beautified 
by  gently  curving  avenues  and  paths,  and  almost  at  every  step  monu- 
ments and  tombs  arrest  the  attention  of  the  visitor. 

Upwards  of  3,500  lots  have  been  sold,  a  great  proportion  of  which 
are  variously  improved  with  inclosures  and  monumental  structures, 
comparing  favorably,  it  is  believed,  with  similar  improvements  in 
any  of  the  other  Cemeteries  in  this  country.  The  number  of  inter- 
ments now  exceed  8,400,  and  are  greatly  on  the  increase. 

The  Charter  embraces  every  desirable  provision  for  the  protection, 
permanence,  and  proper  government  of  the  Institution.  It  exempts 
the  Grounds  for  ever  from  assessment  and  public  taxes,  and  also 
from  all  liability  to  be  sold  on  execution,  or  for  the  payment  of  debts 
by  assignment  under  any  insolvent  law.  It  requires  that  all  the  pro- 
ceeds ot  sales  of  Lots  shall  be  applied  to  the  payment  of  the  ground 
purchased,  and  to  the  preservation,  improvement,  and  embellishment 
of  the  Cemetery,  and  to  the  incidental  expenses  thereof,  and  to  no  other 
purpose  whatever.  This  provision  effectually  excludes  all  specula- 
tive gain,  and  prevents  any  other  interest  conflicting  with  that  ol  Lot 
owners.  Lot  owners*  are  sole  proprietors  of  the  Cemetery,  and 
through  the  medium  of  Trustees  whom  they  choose,  they  control 
entirely  the  Institution. 

The  price  of  Lots  is  $90  each,  where  four  or  more  are  taken  toge- 
ther, and  8 1 10  for  a  single  Lot;  hall  lots,  $55 ;  one-third  Lots.  $36  66  eta. 
These  prices  include  the  cost  of  grading.  The  size,  including  the 
margin  allowed  for  purposes  of  inclosure,  is  14  by  27  feet,  or  378 
superficial  feet.  Deeds  are  given  in  fee  simple  for  all  Lots  sold,  and 
they  are  taken  care  of  free  of  expense. 

Receiving  Tombs  are  provided  in  various  parts  of  the  City  and  at

This  Cemetery  is  situated^on  the  high  grounds  near  Manhattanville, 
on  the  island  of  New  York,  extending  from  153d  street  to  155th  street, 
and  from  the  Tenth  Avenue  to  Hudson  River.  The  grounds  are  high, 
giving  a  commanding  view  of  the  Hudson  River,  Highlands,  and  Jer- 
sey shore,  the  viul?e  of  Harlem,  the  Sound,  and  Long  Island  shore. 
The  grounds  are  beautifully  laid  out  in  avenues  and  walks,  and  well 
covered  with  a  great  variety  of  wood,  ornamental  trees,  evergreens, 
and  shrubbery.  The  soil  is  of  the  most  suitable  kind  for  burial  pur- 
poses. 

This  Cemetery  is  fenced  in  the  most  secure  and  permanent  manner. 
A  keeper's  lodge  is  on  the  grounds,  and  a  keeper  in  constant  attend- 
ance to  show  the  grounds,  arfd  to  give  such  information  as  may  be 
required  in  relation  to  the  Cemetery. 

The  whole  of  the  Burial  and  Vault  Plots  are  fronted  on  avenues. 
The  price  of  the  regular  sized  lots,  15  feet  square,  is  $60  in  the  east- 
erly division,  and  $65  in  the  westerly  division ;  smaller  and  larger 
sized  lots  can  be  had  at  a  proportionate  price.  A  portion  of  the 
grounds  have  been  laid  out  for  single  interments.  The  price  for  an 
interment  is  as  follows :  For  persons  fourteen  years  of  age  and  up- 
wards, in  graves,  $5 ;  in  church  vaults,  $7 ;  for  persons  under  four- 
teen and  over  five  years  of  age,  in  graves,  03 ;  in  vaults,  $4 ;  for  those 
under  five  years,  in  graves,  82  ;  in  vaults,  §2  50.  The  keeper's  charge 
for  opening  graves  for  persons  of  fourteen  years  and  upwards,  is  02 ; 
under  fourteen  and  over  five,  SI  50;  under  five  years,  $1 ;  the  price

that  place  or  at  the  Cemetery,  will  also  be  granted  without  charge, 
excepting  §1  to  the  sexton  for  opening. 

The  avenues  and  roads  leading  to  the  Cemetery  are  good  at  all  sea-

STREET  AND  AVENUE  DIRECTORY 


OF  THE 

CITY  OF  NEW-YORK. 


{Corrected  October  20, 1849.) 


Entered  according  to  Act  of  Congress,  in  the  year  1849,  by  H.  WILSON, 
in  the  Clerk's  Office  of  the  District  Court  of  the  United  States 
for  the  Southern  District  of  New- York. 


Explanation. 

If  you  wish  to  find  the  location  of  any  dwelling-house  or  store —for  in- 
stance, No  80  Allen  street, -on  consulting  the  Street  Directory,  you  will 
observe  that  68  Allen  is  on  the  right  hand  of  that  street  and  on  the  cor- 
ner of  Grand,  and  88  Allen  is  on  the  riaht-hand  corner  of  Broome  :  hence 
the  desired  number,  8u  Allen,  will  be  on  the  right-hand  side  of  Allen- 
street,  between  Grand  and  Broome. 

Or  suppose  that  you  are  going  up  Broadway  and  wish  to  take  a  cross 
street,  so  as  to  call  at  i-28  Bowery  :  on  examination  (si  e  Bowery)  of  the 
corner  numbers  in  the  Bowery,  you  will  observe  that  127  Bowery  is  on 
the  corner  of  the  Bowery  and  Grand ;—  hence,  by  passing  from  Broadway 
through  Grand-street  to  the  Bowery,  you  are  opposite  to  the  desired 
number,  128. 

NOTE  -The  streets  above  Twelfth-street  are  divided  by  Fifth  Avenue 
into  East  and  West,— as  East  Thirteenth,  West  Thirteenth—  and  the 
streets  located  as  above  described  will  be  found,  therefore,  in  this  work 
under  East  and  West.

BY  THE  LATE  HENRY  HALL  SHERWOOD,  M.  D. 

NOTICE.— Dr.  H.  H.  Sherwood  having  deceased  on  the  18th  of 
September  last,  his  medical  business  and  practice  is  continued,  as 
usual,  at  his  late  residence,  in  accordance  with  his  testamentary  in-

The  Treatise  of  Dr.  Sherwood  upon  Chronic  Diseases  explains 
fully  the  nature  and  effects  of  these  remedies,  and  will  be  sent  by  us

best  the  world  affords.  "  I  have  seen  the  artifi-

excellent  and  well  calculated  to  answer  all  the 
objects  desired.  But  the  best  of  all  is  the  proof  of 
those  who  wear  them  ;  this  is  positive  and  unde-

RICH'S 

INSTITUTE  FOR  PHYSICAL  TRAINING, 

157,  159,  and  161  Crosby-st.  (near  Bleecker). 


JOHN  B.  RICH,  M.  D.,  Principal. 


Established  for  the  Promotion  and  Preservation  of  the  Health  of 
Adults  (male  and  female),  by  means  of 


SYSTEMATIC  PHYSICAL  TRAINING. 


Many  persons  in  this  community  are  actually  dying  for  the  want 
of  proper  exercise.  Many  with  narrow  and  contracted  chests,  that 
might  be  made  broad  and  full;  round  shoulders,  that  could,  with  a 
very  little  training,  be  made  square ;  stooping,  when  they  might  be 
straight ;  and,  worse  than  all  these,  their  lungs  weak  and  affected  by 
the  slightest  changes  in  the  weather,  when  they  might  be  made 
strong,  so  as  to  bid  defiance  to  the  changes  of  weather  or  climate. 
All  these  beneficial  results  can  be  produced  by  the  system  of  phy- 
sical training  which  is  pursued  at  this  Institution. 

It  has  been  very  properly  observed,  that  if  only  some  of  the  many 
advantages  resulting  from  exercise  could  be  procured  from  any  one 
medicine,  nothing  in  the  world  would  be  in  more  esteem,  and  so 
anxiously  sought  after,  as  this  medicine. 

In  large  and  crowded  cities,  there  is  generally  but  little  opportunity 
of  invigorating  the  body  by  due  exercise  of  the  limbs  and  muscles, 
but  such  an  opportunity  this  Institution  affords  to  the  citizens  of 
New- York.  It  is,  beyond  all  comparison,  the  best  and  largest  Insti- 
tution for  PHYSICAL  TRAINING  in  the  United  States,  if  not  in 
the  world.  The 

Exercising  Room 

is  TWENTY-FIVE  FEET  HIGH,  covering  a  surface  of  over  SIX 
THOUSAND  SQUARE  FEET.  In  order  to  have  it  in  his  power 
to  employ  every  means  that  may  be  made  available  to  the  perfect 
physical  development  of  the  human  frame,  DR.  RICH  has  con- 
structed a 

Running  Ground  222  feet  long. 

£3=  BATHS  are  provided  for  the  subscribers  without  additional 
charge.  The  Dres sing-Rooms  are  conveniently  arranged,  and  the 
whole  building  comfortably  warmed  and  well  ventilated.

Pressure,  or  otherwise,  and  which  cannot  be  surpassed  in  this

duced have  rendered  these  Teeth  perfect  for  Speech,  Masti- 
cation, and  Natural  Appearance. 

The  Instruments  which  he  uses  in  his  profession  are  of 
the  very  Latest  Improved  Inventions,  and  are  unsurpassed  in 
variety  and  quality. 

Dr.  Rowell  would  also  invite  the  attention  of  the  public  to  his 
Premium  Incorruptible  Gum-Teeth. 

These  Teeth  have  won  the  admiration  of  all  who  have  seen 
them,  and  the  warm  approval  and  recommendation  of  all  who 
have  used  or  worn  them.  Thev  imitate  the  natural  appear-
